Global congruence between cuckoo species richness and biodiversity hotspots
Original language description
Considering loss of biodiversity a global threat, cost effective tools for monitoring spatial distribution of species are relevant for conservation planning. The aims of this study were to compare the global pattern of species richness in Cuculidae with species richness of birds, amphibians and mammals, whether it is spatially congruent with hotspot areas of biodiversity at a global scale, and whether the distribution of night light intensity reflecting human population density is associated with cuckoo species richness. We mapped the global distribution of all cuckoo species, classified as parasitic or non parasitic species. Species richness was calculated at a fixed spatial scale for Cuculidae, amphibians, birds and mammals. We applied Generalized Linear Mixed Models in order to explore the associations between species richness of each group of animals, night light intensity and hotspots of biodiversity areas at a global scale. Worldwide patterns of species richness of parasitic and non-parasiti
